Teaching + Service

Teaching 

I am an Associate Instructor at Indiana University, where I have been involved with several courses. These involvements are listed below:

IU's mathematics department runs several programs for advanced undergraduate mathematics majors in which I have been involved. For example, in Fall 2023, I ran a project with the Laboratory of Geometry, in which my students developed their own code for numerically finding approximate Neumann eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on planar domains.  In Fall 2024, I am running a project for the Directed Reading Program in which my student is learning the basics of spectral theory. 

Each August, IU's mathematics department hosts the Jumpstart program, which is a crash course for first and second year graduate students geared toward helping them pass their Tier 1 exams. In August 2022, I co-led the abstract algebra sessions for this program. The following links contain my lectures notes on linear algebra and ring theory: 

Graduate Student Seminar

I am an organizer of IU's Graduate Student Seminar. In Fall 2024, we are meeting each week on Tuesday at 4:30pm in Swain West 219. If you are an IU (or visiting!) grad student (or undergrad!) interested in attending or speaking in the seminar, please send me an email at any time. 

Peer Mentoring Initiative

The Peer Mentoring Initiative (PMI) seeks to create a welcoming environment and sense of community among the current and incoming graduate students in the mathematics department at IU. The PMI played a major role in getting me to where I am today, and I am now on of its co-organizers. Our work includes pairing incoming graduate students with more advanced graduate students into mentor-mentee pairs, hosting welcome events each fall, and hosting virtual open houses for prospective graduate students each spring. If you are a current or prospective graduate student interested in this program, please feel free to reach out to me!
